Serum-derived immune factors as correlates of Artemisinin-based combination therapy efficacy in treatment of uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Kombewa, Western Kenya
(Maseno University, 2018)Artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) is recommended first-line treatment for malaria in a number of Sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries. Recent reports of decline in efficacy of ACT and emergence of ACT resistant ... -
Stability of Lie Groups of Nonlinear Hyperbolic Equations
(University of Pretoria, 1997)Nonlinear theories, started in the 1960's, provided for the first time in the literature global generalized solutions for arbitrary continuous nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). These theories have now been ... -
Study of dissipation and degradation of malathion and dimethoate from the soil and the pea plant (Pisum sativum) using a radioisotope tracer technique
(Maseno University, 1999)The dissipation and degradation of 14C-malathion {S-l, 2- bis (ethoxy carbonyl) ethyl 0, 0- dimethyl phosphorodithioate} and T'Csdimethoate {O, O-dimethyl S-methyl carbamoyl methyl phosphorodithioate} from the soil and ... -
Susceptibility and behavioural responses of the Genus anopheles (diptera: culicidae). To bednets . Impregnated with a synergized pyrethrum Insecticide, forlviulation and potential for Malaria control
(Maseno University, 2012)The use of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) has become a key cost-effective intervention in malaria control. However, there is need to develop new insecticide formulations to sustain the technology and manage the threat ... -

Synthesis and characterization of fish scales (Oreochromis niloticus) derived biochar and magnetic composites and their application in removal of anionic indigo carmine and cationic crystal violet dyes from synthetic and industrial wastewater
(Maseno University, 2022)The global and regional increase in demand for textile products have led to increased quantities of dye wastewater in the environment, which is a potential source of carcinogenic compounds. This situation not only hampers ... -
Validation of A Cytometric Multiplex Assay and Examination Of Antibody Responses to Plasmodium Falciparum Antigens in the Highlands of Western Kenya During a Period of Low Malaria Transmission
(Maseno University, 2013)Malaria is one of the world's most deadly diseases. Even though it is highly preventable and treatable, it is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the tropics. As the campaign for malaria eradication widens, ...
